Welcoming Lakeview to the Estes Audiology Family

A Homecoming for an Audiologist with Roots in Marble Falls

NEW BRAUNFELS, TX – January 25, 2017 – Expanding to its fifth city in central Texas, New Braunfels- based firm Estes Audiology is embarking on its first acquisition of a well-established audiology practice in Marble Falls. By acquiring Lakeview Hearing Center, Estes Audiology adds a presence in the Highland Lakes area to its existing clinics located in Austin, Boerne, New Braunfels, and Seguin, Texas.

Lakeview Hearing Center’s proprietor, Angela Wooten, M.S., founded Lakeview Hearing Center in 1995. Angie, as well as her existing staff including two other licensed audiologists, Bart Noble, Ph. D. and Kathy Sonnamaker, Au. D. are becoming part of the Estes Audiology team moving forward.

“We were looking for a strong partner who shares our philosophy in hearing care,” says Wooten. “The future of Lakeview Hearing Center is in good hands as part of the Estes Audiology family.” Lakeview Hearing Center operations will be gradually merged into those of Estes Audiology, with the website and Facebook presence reflecting changes first. Some new décor will begin a visual transformation; however the care, professional services, and hearing solution offerings will continue to remain at the highest level as they always have in the practice.

One reason for the interest in Marble Falls area stems from it being the hometown of Kelli (Stringer) House, partner at Estes Audiology, who graduated from Marble Falls High School. “We see Lakeview Hearing Center as a pillar of the Marble Falls community,” says House. “This is an important step for Estes Audiology, continuing to build a stronger multi-location audiology practice to better serve patients and families in central Texas.”

With access to products from brands including Widex, Oticon, Phonak, and others, Estes Audiology brings both advanced hearing technology and comprehensive personal care to hearing solutions. Patients of Lakeview Hearing Center can now choose from a broader line of digital hearing aids, options in hearing protection, and testing services, as well as being in-network for most major health insurance plans.
